यहेज्केल 1
1 १ माझ्या आयुष्याच्या तिसाव्या वर्षाच्या चौथ्या महिन्याच्या पाचव्या दिवशी, मी खबार नदीच्या तीरी दास्यात गेलेल्या लोकांसोबत राहत होतो. तेव्हा स्वर्ग उघडला आणि मी देवाचा दृष्टांत पाहिला.
Now it came to pass in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, in the fifth day of the month, as I was among the captives by the river Chebar, that the heavens were opened, and I saw visions of God.
On the fifth day of the month, in the fifth year of the captivity of King Jehoiachin,
3 ३ खबार नदिच्या जवळ, खास्द्यांच्या देशात बूजीचा मुलगा यहेज्केल याजकाकडे परमेश्वर देवाचे वचन सामर्थ्याने आले व परमेश्वर देवाचा हात त्याच्यावर आला.
the word of Jehovah came to Ezekiel, the son of Buzi, the priest, in the land of the Chaldaeans, by the river Chebar; and the hand of Jehovah was there upon him.
4 ४ तेव्हा मी पाहिले उत्तरेकडून तुफानाचा वारा सुटला, तो एक अग्नीने धुमसणारा, मध्य भागात विजांचा पिवळसर प्रकाश मध्यभागी चमकत असलेला विशाल मेघ होता.
And I looked, and behold, a stormy wind came from the north, a great cloud, and a mass of fire; and a brightness was round about it, and in the midst of it the appearance of bright brass, in the midst of the fire.
And in the midst of it were the forms of four living creatures. And this was their appearance. They had the form of a man.
And every one had four faces, and every one had four wings.
And their feet were upright; and the sole of their feet was as the sole of a calf's foot; and they sparkled like polished brass.
8 ८ त्यांच्या चोहोबाजूंना पंखाखाली त्यांना मनुष्याचे हात होते. त्या चौघांना त्यांचे मुखे व पंख याप्रमाणे होतेः
And they had the hands of a man under their wings on their four sides, and all four had faces and wings.
9 ९ त्यांचे पंख त्यांच्या बाजूच्या प्राण्याच्या पंखांना स्पर्श करीत आणि पुढे जाण्यासाठी ते वळत नव्हते; त्याऐवजी त्यांच्यापैकी प्रत्येक आपल्यापुढे नीट सरळ चालत असे.
Their wings were joined one to another; they turned not about when they went; they went every one straight forward.
10 १० त्या चौघांच्या मुखापैकी एकाचे मुख मनुष्याच्या तोंडासारखे दिसत होते, दुसऱ्याचे मुख सिंहाच्या तोंडासारखे, तिसऱ्याचे मुख बैलासारखे आणि चौथ्याचे मुख गरुडाच्या तोंडासारखे होते.
As for the form of their faces, all four had the face of a man, and the face of a lion on the right side, and all four had the face of an ox on the left side, and all four had also the face of an eagle.
11 ११ त्यांची मुखे अशाप्रकारची होती आणि त्यांचे पंख एकमेकापासून वेगळे होते, प्रत्येक प्राण्याचे पंख दुसऱ्या प्राण्याच्या पंखांना स्पर्श करत होते.
Thus were their faces. And their wings were expanded upward; two wings of every one were joined, and two covered their bodies.
And they went every one straight forward; whither the spirit was to go, they went, and they turned not about when they went.
13 १३ ते जिवंत प्राणी जळत्या कोलीतासमान किंवा मशालीसमान दिसत होते; त्यांच्यातून प्रखर अग्नी निघत होता व विजा चकाकत होत्या.
And the appearance of the living creatures was as coals of fire, burning like torches; and the fire moved about among the living creatures, and shone forth brightly; and out of the fire came forth lightning.
And the living creatures ran backward and forward like a flash of lightning.
Now as I beheld the living creatures, behold, there stood a wheel upon the earth by each of the living creatures, with its four sides.
16 १६ त्या चाकांचे स्वरूप असे दिसत होतेः चारही चाके एक समान व वैडूर्य मण्यांसारखी होती; आणि जणूकाही चाकात चाक घातलेले असून त्यांना एकमेकांस छेदलेले असावे असा त्यांचा आकार होता.
The appearance of the wheels, and their work, was like that of a chrysolite, and all four had one form, and their appearance and their work was as if a wheel had been within a wheel.
When they went, they went upon their four sides, and they turned not about when they went.
As for their felloes, they were high and terrible; and their felloes were full of eyes round about upon all four of them.
19 १९ जेव्हा ते जिवंत प्राणी चालत तेव्हा त्याच्या सोबत चाके चालत जेव्हा ते प्राणी पृथ्वीपासून उंच उडत तेव्हा त्यांची चाकेही त्यांच्या सोबत उंचावत होती.
And when the living creatures went, the wheels went beside them; and when the living creatures were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up.
20 २० जेथे जिवंत प्राण्यांचा आत्मा त्यांना नेऊ इच्छित होता ते तिकडे जात होते. आत्मा त्यांना उंचावत होता आणि त्यांच्या चाकात त्यांचा आत्मा होता.
Whithersoever the spirit was to go, they went, whithersoever the spirit was to go; and the wheels were lifted up beside them; for the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels.
21 २१ जेव्हा केव्हा ते प्राणी चालत चाकेही हालचाल करीत, जेव्हा ते थांबत चाकेही थांबत, जेव्हा ते उंच उडत त्यांच्या सोबत चाकेही उंच उडत होती कारण त्यांचा आत्मा त्यांच्या चाकांत वास करीत होता.
When those went, these went; and when those stood, these stood; and when those were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up beside them; for the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels.
22 २२ त्या जिवंत प्राण्यांच्या मस्तकावर महागड्या घुमटासारखे चकाकणारे दिसत होते, त्यांच्या कपाळावर स्फटिकासारखे चमकत होते.
And over the heads of the living creatures was the appearance of a firmament, like crystal, terrible, spread out over their heads above.
23 २३ घुमटाखाली प्राणी आपले पंख सरळ लांब पसरवत होते आणि एकमेकांच्या पंखांना ते स्पर्श करीत होते. प्रत्येक प्राण्याच्या पंखांच्या जोडीने आपले शरीर झाकीत आणि दोन-दोन पंखांनी स्वतःला आवरण करीत.
And under the firmament were their wings upright, the one toward the other; and every one had two, which covered his body.
24 २४ तेव्हा मी त्यांच्या पंखांचा पाण्याच्या धबधब्यासारखा मोठा आवाज ऐकला. तो सर्वसामर्थ्य देवाच्या वाणीसारखा होता. ते चालत तेव्हा जोरदार पर्जन्यवृष्टीयुक्त वादळासमान ध्वनी होता. तो ध्वनी मोठ्या सेनेसारखा होता. जेव्हा ते थांबत असे तेव्हा ते आपले पंख खाली करत होते.
And I heard the sound of their wings, as the sound of great waters, as the voice of the Almighty, when they went, —a sound like the noise of a host. And when they stood still, they let down their wings.
25 २५ जेव्हा ते थांबत व आपले पंख खाली स्तब्ध ठेवीत तेव्हा त्यांच्या माथ्यावरील घुमटातून आवाज येत होता.
And there was a voice from the firmament, that was over their heads; and they stood still, and let down their wings.
26 २६ त्यांच्या माथ्याच्या वरील घुमटाच्या भागात नीलरत्न जडीत सिंहासन दिसत होते, आणि सिंहासनावर मनुष्याच्या चेहऱ्या समान कोणी असल्याची जाणीव होत होती.
And above the firmament over their heads was an appearance like a sapphire-stone, the form of a throne; and upon the form of the throne there was a form like that of a man above.
27 २७ त्याच्या ठायी सर्वत्र तृणमण्याच्या तेजासारखा प्रकाश मी पाहिला, त्याच्या कमरेपासून खाली अग्नीचा भास झाला, व त्याच्या भोवती प्रभा चमकत होती.
And I saw what had the appearance of bright brass, what had the appearance of fire round about within it, from the appearance of his loins and upward. And from the appearance of his loins downward I saw what had the appearance of fire, and its brightness was round about him.
28 २८ पाऊस पडतांना दिसणाऱ्या मेघधनुष्यासारखा तो भासत होता त्याच्या भोवती प्रखर तेजोमय प्रकाश होता. हे परमेश्वर देवाचे गौरवयुक्त तेज दिसत होते. जेव्हा मी हे पाहिले व माझ्यासोबत बोलणारी वाणी ऐकली तेव्हा मी उपडा पडलो.
As the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud in the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness round about. This was the appearance of the glory of Jehovah. And when I saw it I fell upon my face, and I heard the voice of one who spoke.
